Subject: perf arm64: Generate system call table from asm/unistd.h

Git-commit: 2b5882435606c209ebc052230f03505ea477a252
Patch-mainline: v4.19-rc1
References: fate#325865,fate#325861

This should speed up accessing new system calls introduced with the
kernel rather than waiting for libaudit updates to include them.

Using the existing other arch scripts resulted in this error:

tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls//mksyscalltbl: 25: printf: __NR3264_ftruncate: expected numeric value

because, unlike other arches, asm-generic's unistd.h does things like:

#define __NR_ftruncate __NR3264_ftruncate

Turning the scripts printf's %d into a %s resulted in this in the
generated syscalls.c file:

static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
            [__NR3264_ftruncate] = "ftruncate",

So we use the host C compiler to fold the macros, and print them out
from within a temporary C program, in order to get the correct output:

static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
            [46] = "ftruncate",

Committer notes:

Testing this with a container with an old toolchain breaks because it
ends up using the system's /usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h, included
from tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h when what is desired is
for it to include tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h.

Since all that tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h is to set a
define and then include asm-generic/unistd.h, do that directly and use
tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h as the file to get the syscall
definitions to expand.

Testing it:

tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h

Now works and generates in the syscall string table.

Before it ended up as:

$ tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl /gcc-linaro-5.4.1-2017.05-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc gcc tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h
  static const char *syscalltbl_arm64[] = {
  <stdin>: In function 'main':
  <stdin>:257:38: error: '__NR_getrandom' undeclared (first use in this function)
  <stdin>:257:38: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
  <stdin>:258:41: error: '__NR_memfd_create' undeclared (first use in this function)

  <stdin>:260:37: error: '__NR_execveat' undeclared (first use in this function)
  tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl: 47: tools/perf/arch/arm64/entry/syscalls/mksyscalltbl: /tmp/create-table-60liya: Permission denied
